A Dream On My Mind

A dream so real
A feeling of being there
While asleep in my bed

In a wooded area
With a narrow winding road
Leading me to a river

Dear Darlene, Dreams! As I have slowly developed my soul my dreams have returned to much softer introspection. I love short poems that hit the nail on the head. You did!

Wonderfully written. As I sleep in fits and starts, the imagery here makes me want to lie down and sleep. Very nice, Darlene. Richard

I don't believe in dreams really. They are part of our life come up to the fore. Maybe some day you wandered towards the sea. Lovely thoughts though.

I read somewhere that when you dream of water, you will likely find some very insightful information that will help you on your life path. I fill a bit of Deja vu, nice one, Darlene.

I’ve had seemingly real dreams on occasion and those are the ones I like to ponder. Perhaps your river represents an obstacle of some sort or just the need to wet a line fishing. Enjoyed, and thanks for checking out mine. John

Heya Darlene, the river is perhaps the source of your dream, I like the way you just end the poem when you reach the river, let’s the reader ponder for themselves what it means, cheers David
